    Anyone else having issues with ShowZ's customer service taking suuuuper long? So far I've filed two complaints/replacement requests for my 4th party hound. One was a week ago, the other a few days. So far I have gotten no response to either.

    That's how I ended up sending a second email. I sent the first one, then after getting no reply, I contacted them directly through Facebook where they directed me to another link.

    So good news: Show.Z sent me a replacement figure. Just the figure by itself with the requested replacement accessories, but the spare tire accessory wasn't include. Is there anyone who would be willing to sell me one? It can be official or KO. (preferably KO)

    Just standing there, doing nothing. Has happened with various people. :( 

    I hope that they fix the plastic issue and re-release Hound. He's one of my favorite figures in the Masterpiece line.

    Let's hope we get a reissue, it's desperately needed.

    I am surprised Takara hasn't repainted Hound yet.

    What's the point of manufacturing a repainted Hound if all he's gonna do is transform into a pile of dust. A dusty alt mode that you can't convert back into robot mode.

    I'd guess they'd want to iron out all the issues and throw out a fixed Hound before they do.

    Still hoping for that Detritus repaint though thanks to @chchchch. Damn you for making me fall in love with a damn Junkion repaint of all things! :lol

    Do we even know TT has even acknowledged there is an issue, to begin with?

    It seems like there was some level of acknowledgment… @Gamerlingual might be able to elaborate. I’m not sure how official it was, though.

    They follow TFW2005,you know.
    99.99% sure they know about the Hound issues they've been well documented online in a language they read.

    If my memory serves me right, pretty sure it was something about them trying some sort of new material on Hound but that obviously backfired, and the rep at that Wonderfest said that they were aware but had no plans for a reissue at that time.
